The “Jets” hysteria isn’t about to subside and there will be people in Manitoba, like it or not, who’ll never accept a team named anything but the Jets. True North may have had a name lined up before hand, but it’s plans on the matter at this point are derailed.

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 16:18:00 +0000http://illegalcurve.com/?p=28973#comment-6471Yes during an interview on XM Home Ice Chipman stated they probably would not have the jersey ready for the Draft, and that the team would probably use the NHL shield as the jersey for their pick to put on or something to that effect.

I’m still having a hard time believing that they don’t have something ready given how prepared they were with every other part of this transition… My speculation is that they are trying to wait out the “jets” hysteria so they can introduce the team as the Manitoba Moose…

In regards to the article about uncharted territory in the US for hockey, sure, there are many big cities that dont have any hockey, or support a lower level. BUT, just because they dont have hockey and share that with the combination of being a large market, in no way means anyone should look at putting a team there. Atlanta was a mess, Phoenix continues to make the NHL look like a joke, and it wont be long before something in Miami blows up. I know the point of the article was just to evaluate whats out there, but i am so sick of people throwing around names of cities when in reality, now that you guys have a team back, theres no readily available place to move an NHL franchise.

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 15:29:00 +0000http://illegalcurve.com/?p=28973#comment-6467I thought he said it wouldn’t be ready in time for the draft. I don’t believe that either, FWIW.
